Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Acta Atrium Palace Barcelona

One or the best recently opened

from anonymous

I chose this hotel to accommodate some friends visiting the city. As far as I know Barcelona hotels, the Atrium Palace is one of the nicest in the downtown area: modern, elegant and plenty of touches. Excellent value if you find an offer.

Good location, Modern Design, Great Breakfast

from LyonZ

Atrium Palace is located about five minutes on foot from Plaza Catalunya, where the Airport bus drops you off. That means that you are in walking distance of places to eat and shop and yet in an area quiet enough to not feel overwhelmed (as you might walking along the Ramblas).

The rooms were modern, elegant (definitely four-star), good size working desk, comfortable beds, sufficient lighting, a safe for valuables, and excellent amenities. On the first floor there is a small air conditioned lounge/library with computers (for use?) and there is also a pool located underneath the hotel.

The breakfast buffet is simply amazing and ranks among the best ones that I have ever had. Cava and water and wine, fresh fruits, wonderful meats and cheeses and mild coffee. If you are able to get a rate that includes breakfast (for maybe 10 EURO a person), opt for it. It's an excellent deal.

Would not hesitate to stay here again.

Could not be better!

We stayed at this hotel as part of my mothers birthday celebrations so it was important that everything was perfect. We booked online and asked for a room for three. The hotel provided us with an enormous room that was stylishly furnished and immaculate throughout. But what made our stay so perfect was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.

Nothing was a problem for them, they would give directions, book your taxi and tell the driver personally where you want to be, recommend local restaurants. If you are lucky enough to stay, ask EVA on reception about her beautiful jewlery which she makes herself! The hotel is brilliantly situated, around the corner from the Ramblas. The spa was great and helped our aching feet at the end of the day!

We booked the hotel direct as they spoke good english and answered emails i sent to them. The rate i got was 195 euros including taxes and breakfast.T he hotel was located in the best part of Barcelona near Plaza De Gracia and not far away from La Rambla (disapointing).the hotel is clean and we couldnt fault it in anyway. T he bed was hard but we like hard beds.If you are arriving from the aiport simply take the train to Plaza De Catunla and you are simply 10 minutes walking from the hotel. Would go back there again.

Keep away!

Great hotel

Had a very quiet street side room with a nice balcomy. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was very good. The breakfast buffet was fabulous and very nicely set up. The restaurant staff were very accommodating one evening close to closing time when all we wanted was a salad, bread and wine. The salad was beautiful.

Superb in every way

This was our favorite hotel out of many in a 10 city European tour. We got an incredibly good deal at the hotels own Web site (for a minimum three night stay it was only 108 Euros per night for a double). The hotel is new, beautifully designed and executed in all ways. The lobby was lovely, an office suite provided free 24 hour internet access, the small indoor pool, gym, spa, and sauna were very clean and relaxing and well-done in design (wonderful little details like inset lighting and wood trim, or the light in the pool that changed colors). The room was gorgeous and fairly large and comfortably air conditioned, with an iron and ironing board built into the closet, the bathroom was incredible (stainless fixtures, floor to ceiling marble, a bidet). The bed was a bit too firm, but we adjusted. The front desk service was exceptionally good friendly, knowledgeable, proactively helpful (asking do you need a taxi? after recommending a few good restaurants or a Laundromat). Location is good - a few blocks up from the Plaza Catalanya and the Ramblas, so not right in the thick of all that bustle. Highest praise for everything!

A brand-new hotel, 4 star, near the Ramblas, with very good prices (maybe because it's still new and unknown? We paid 130 € + tax for a double, which is the price of a similarly-located 3*). Lovely room, marble-tiled bathroom. The AC is really good - you don't even notice it, except for the fact that the temperature is perfect.

... went out to tea at RESTAURANT Llantia. It was a nice tapas meal with chorizo, salad, yummy roasted asparagus and our first excellent sangria. We had a great walk after tea including a nice coco and vaniglia gelati. The area is great, with restaurants, markets, lots of outdoor eating areas, churches, great buildings and so on. The soccer semi final (Brazil and Holland) is on and so many people are around. All in all an interesting place.

... From Belgium, Flemish speaking, on expenses. I had to get the true story - they set up exhibitions (Mercedes etc.),spend their lives internationally, love food. They booked their table for tomorrow, off menu, lobster and scampi. So we booked the same food (same special price). Football and good food. Yum. Now for the bad news. Sent 5k to Freeport by wire transfer one week ago. Those of you who have had dealings with CIBC/FCIB will not be surprised to find out that it ...

... and we only last an hour or so before calling it quits and finding a table on the street a little away from the hurly burly, and order a beer. We have noticed that smoking is still quite prevalent here, mostly among the woman. What makes it so unattractive though, is that people are allowed to smoke inside and out, so you can be sitting having your meal or a drink and their smoke invades your serenity. Yay for designated areas, New ...

... every single guy at the table to buy me one (somehow I managed to be the only girl on the tour....), but apart from that a very good and late night. This really good night lead us to booking our accomodation in Ireland drunk at 2:30 am and chosing a place called "Marilyn Mansion". To be honest it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be based on limited choices, drunkeness, and an affinity for bad puns (turns out it was for Marilyn Munroe not Marilyn Manson anyway; THANK GOD!).
